It measures state of charge, voltage, current, power consumption and time remaining, giving installers and system operators accurate, real-time data on battery health and capacity. It is suited to off-grid solar systems, marine installations, motorhomes and any application where reliable battery monitoring is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDisplays state of charge (SOC) as a percentage, with high accuracy based on Peukert-corrected ampere-hour counting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeasures voltage, current (up to 500A via included shunt), power in watts and consumed amp-hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCalculates time-to-go based on current discharge rate, giving a realistic remaining runtime estimate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgrammable relay output for triggering alarms or loads based on SOC, voltage or temperature thresholds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBacklit display with intuitive rotary dial navigation, readable in low-light conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports a wide range of battery chemistries including lead-acid (AGM, gel, flooded) and lithium (LiFePO4).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfigurable via the free VictronConnect app over Bluetooth when used with an optional VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMidpoint voltage monitoring capability to detect cell or battery imbalance in series battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BMV-702 uses a 500A\/50mV shunt to measure all current flowing in and out of the battery bank. By tracking charge and discharge cycles with Peukert compensation applied, it maintains an accurate state of charge figure even as battery capacity changes with temperature and discharge rate. This is a meaningful improvement over simple voltage-based SOC estimation, which is unreliable under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe programmable relay is a practical feature for professional installations. It can be configured to switch at defined SOC or voltage thresholds, making it useful for load shedding, generator start signals or low-battery alarms. The midpoint voltage monitoring function is particularly valuable in larger 24V or 48V series battery banks, where individual battery degradation can go undetected without dedicated monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the retail-boxed version, supplied with the 500A shunt, display unit, cabling and mounting hardware. The BMV-702 connects to the battery via the shunt and to the display via a CAT5 cable. VE.Direct port allows integration with Victron GX devices, MPPT solar charge controllers and the VRM online monitoring portal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: BAM010702000R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible system voltages: 12V, 24V, 48V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShunt rating: 500A \/ 50mV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.627 kg (retail box)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076020103\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid solar PV systems with battery storage requiring accurate SOC tracking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine and narrowboat installations where battery capacity management is critical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorhome and campervan leisure battery systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power and UPS systems where remaining runtime must be known.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge series battery banks (24V or 48V) where midpoint voltage monitoring is needed to detect imbalance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSystems integrated with Victron GX devices for remote monitoring via the VRM portal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBMV-702 display unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e500A \/ 50mV shunt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCAT5 connection cable (display to shunt)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting hardware and battery connection cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRetail packaging with installation documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BMV-702 shunt must be installed on the negative battery terminal, with all negative loads and charge sources connected to the load side of the shunt. Incorrect wiring will result in inaccurate readings. Installation in battery systems above 48V is not supported. For integration into larger Victron systems or commercial off-grid installations, a qualified electrician or MCS-accredited installer is recommended. The VE.Direct port allows connection to Victron GX devices; a VE.Direct cable is not included and must be sourced separately if required.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59855390900558,"sku":"BAM010702000R","price":95.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_BAM010702000R_-_Battery_Monitor_BMV-702_Retail.webp?v=1781094235","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-bmv-702-battery-monitor","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
